The 2016 United States presidential election in Maine was held on November 8, 2016, as part of the 2016 General Election in which all 50 states plus The District of Columbia participated. Maine voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote pitting the Republican Party's nominee, businessman Donald Trump, and running mate Indiana Governor Mike Pence against Democratic Party nominee, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her running mate, Virginia Senator Tim Kaine.
On March 5 and 6, 2016, in the caucuses, voters expressed their preferences for the Republican, Democratic, and Green parties' respective nominees for President. Registered members of each party only voted in their party's caucus, while voters who were unaffiliated chose any one primary in which to vote.
On election day, Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton carried Maine's two at-large electoral votes and won Maine's 1st congressional district while Republican nominee (and overall election winner) Donald Trump won Maine's 2nd congressional district, making him the first Republican to do so since George H. W. Bush in 1988 and making him the first Republican to win an electoral vote from a New England state since George W. Bush won New Hampshire in 2000. Regarded as a safe blue state, Hillary Clinton's 2.9% margin of victory was the narrowest for a Democrat since 1988, when Republicans last won the state.
